Genetic destability: 16% chance of mutation on splitting I know I'm biased when it comes to slimes but why was the job made so much more tedious/difficult? Even with two people working on slimes it takes 40-50 minutes to get to the end of the tree, at which point the shuttle is already on its way m...

We need that medipod thing from that shitty alien prequel movie, promethium or whatever. Get in it, choose the surgery, it does it for you. Not round start but something like, very advanced R&D/nuke op shuttle etc etc. That would be much better then being sawing their own heads open and stuff i...

I know I complain a lot so I want to be positive and say this is a fantastic idea even if its needed tweaking.

Deathsquad aren't intended to be stopped. They are a round ending event for when the station situation has grown too severe to warrant evacuation. Then just go for the aforementioned nuke. It's no fun for anyone but the ~5 deathsquad members who go around waving their murderboners if you can't even...

Deathsquad needs to be the omega. It needs to be so ridiculously overpowered, an unstoppable force that takes 10 men to take down 1 trooper. This. Opposed to a greyshit getting lucky with a disarm or stunprod+cable cuffs. A clown being able to take down a highly trained coporate spec ops guy is hal...

Kor, what's your policy on adminhelping? As in, what's the most minor offense you think requires an adminhelp, or what's the most major thing that should be resolved IC and not with admin intervention? My personal policy is that I never adminhelp unless I'm suffering from FEATURES. I practice what ...

Our modern day security cameras are also quite capable of recording. Lets make all the cameras on station record, it'll make it harder to just kill people and get away with it. "Someone emagged into the Captain's Office and left no prints! What do we do?" "Oh, let me just pull up the...

Would anyone be opposed to them being semi highish R&D items? Most officers will be too lazy to get them, and the ones that do want them can't just get them round start (mineral/research reqs). I would be opposed. This technology exists now. There's no reason why it would not exist 500 years fr...

onleavedontatme

Asking a item to be made a RnD researchable item is just saying we want to get rid of it without getting rid of it. Good point. When phazons stopped spawning in the mechbay and we made them something you had to build they basically stopped existing. Seriously though you should give these to nuke op...

onleavedontatme

If anyone on the station deserves at least a few moments of thought before attacking with a stun prod, I think Security gets it. You mean other than needing to make sure nobody else sees you, that you can get into maint quickly enough, hoping the AI isn't looking, hoping he doesn't have suits senso...

We need an alternative to late round items other than shoving things into a machine in a certain order and then waiting for mining.

Would be cool to have as a choice though, yeah

rather than address the problem, up and left. You included. I left because my life fell apart completely unrelated to SS13. "Compromise" is the important word. I think the rules need to be grey. It's a very careful balancing act. Every situation is different. Maybe /tg/station has grown t...

onleavedontatme

I like the ideas about resolving stuff IC and admins focusing on trying to resolve disputes instead of just banning people. So if a security officer just found an assistant to be total shit would it just be cool for him to throw the guy outta an airlock? Also Malkevin that isn't policy iirc you don...

onleavedontatme

Here is my philosophy or whatever on the game. You may recognize some parts from singulo. SS13 has three important parts to it, in no particular order: violence/conflict, sandbox, roleplay The violence is the backbone of the game. All the round types revolve around killing people or taking their stu...

But it will set off every alarm in the area/areas near you. EMPs are not really precision weapons.

Plus your EMP will drain your own weapons, further limiting what you can use.

onleavedontatme

You glance at the officer, notice that he's implanted, so go by the current meta of "Implanted Sec can't be antags" http://www.quickmeme.com/img/f6/f67334bc58f2468bad15312669d5edaa0afe4c44de4eb56039994a47f00d296b.jpg Stop. Stop right there. Stop with that 'meta' word. What's that implant ...

Also if the coders are going to make emps the answer to everything then make the emp kit dirt cheap, like literally 1 tc cost since you seem to need it to get anything done. Good luck revs. The simple beauty of ROBUST COMBAT is that you didn't need specific objects to down people. Borgs/hulks were ...

How much effort exactly should it take? Why is stunning and dragging into maint, a staple of the game for nearly a decade, suddenly a bad thing? Because that's extremely easy for anyone on station to pull off And? Easy and fast death is at the core of this game. Or was. We're on a "paranoia la...

Until someone stun prods a Officer and drags them into maintenance, lost forever. Now it takes more effort to attack and kill a Officer aside from a stun prod/cablecuff/wield/space. https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/6595389/6455772/bd74462e-c193-11e4-9ca0-4e847cbdf48b.png How much effort e...

Hasn't that traditionally been the role of head admins?

What's the point of enforcing policy (which must remain nebulous, because it's a nebulous game) if you can't pick people who are going to enforce it?

Steelpoint wrote: Imo a Officer should be a big threat

They are though. Or they were before the taser nerf. Stun batons and flashbangs are still great though.

They're an incorruptible, infallible force with their own channel with a ton of weapons with nothing else to do but hunt badguys.

onleavedontatme

"You can EMP them" is not the answer.

Half the appeal of SS13 is (or was) completing your objectives in a variety of different ways. Forcing people to use a specific piece of antag gear to counter a specific piece of security gear is silly.

Why enforce a rigid meta in the sandbox?

onleavedontatme

So rev is literally impossible now then. It was already extremely difficult if sec was populated paying attention since every real weapon in the armory and revs armed primarily with fists and toolboxes but this is just silly. Seriously you can't fight having fucking helmet's in their fucking helmets...

Antag hunt over new round gotta go fast BUT NOTHINGS HAPPENING LETS GO HOME IM BORED etc etc It endlessly fascinates me that there are people who act disgusted with the fact that SS13 is a videogame People rushing to call the shuttle when nothing is fucked is the other problem here. You shouldn't b...

onleavedontatme

Interesting concept but it still boils down to -More goodies that science gets after shoving stuff in their machine -More items used solely for combat -More combat items that take so long to research that you won't have them in any round with antags "loud" enough to use them Again, they're...

onleavedontatme

How can we fix this? Well right now as head - You're a prime target in pretty much every game mode, whether as a direct objective or simply because of your gear/access -Can't be certain/all antags (depending on which head, obviously) -Under extra admin scrutiny/will get banned for fucking around -W...

I remember my first month pretty well and honestly it felt fantastic to have a sense of progression as you learned the game, slowly building up to the coveted AI that could play with everything on the station freely.

onleavedontatme

I originally requested the whitelist/timer based on a series of people would would sign up, flood plasma/blow borgs etc, then log out. For that reason I think a quiz wouldn't help.

That being said a month is absurd, I wanted a week at most.

Also making a beeline to your locker (which I didnt) while you were doing nothing (as opposed to eating) and then proceeding to let you walk off would be a completely irrational action if I was cheating.

If something like this gets added, I'd say stands or whatever we end up calling them shouldn't be able to directly harm non-users. It wasn't like that in the original, but then again, even the guy with the biggest murderboner in the original at least knew to stroke it in secret rather than show it ...

And we would likely deadmin anyone who got on the server and pushed summon guns five times or whatever just to see what happened.
